About this endpoint

GET /v1/flickr/galleries/{galleryId}/comments returns data.galleryId and a page of data.comments. Each comment carries id, author (with avatar), createdAt, permalink, text and textHtml.

Use limit and page.nextCursor to page through the comments. A gallery with no comments returns lookupStatus: found with an empty list; an invalid or unknown gallery id returns not_found.

Flickr Gallery Comments API FAQ

Are these comments on the gallery or on its photos?

On the gallery itself. Photo comments are read with GET /v1/flickr/photos/{photoId}/comments.

Is the comment text HTML?

Both forms are returned: text has the markup removed and entities decoded, and textHtml is the comment as HTML.

How much does a comments page cost?

Pricing is documented on the operation in the API registry (shown on this page). Confirm on every response with meta.creditsCharged: that field is the billing source of truth. Each paginated page is a separate billed request.

What does not_found mean for a gallery?

The gallery id does not resolve to a public gallery. An existing gallery with no comments is found with an empty list.
